Off the top of my head I can only think of a one case where a value

coerced by placing the class first:
date "3/27/2007"
But that form doesn't work with most other classes
I don't understand this. How else do we navigate the file system but
by this kind of coercion?

set theString to "/Library"
set theFile to POSIX file theString
set theAlias to alias theFile
tell application "Finder" to set theFolder to folder theAlias
set theList to {class of theString, class of theFile, ¬
class of theAlias, class of theFolder}
-->{string, «class furl», alias, folder}

Or are you referring only to the coercion of numerical values?
